A phenomenological relation between stress, strain rate, and temperature for metals at elevated temperatures
It is shown that for one material, 7075-Tm aluminum-alloy sheet, the information yielded by the relation for these four applications agrees reasonably well with test data
Stress and strain concentration at a circular hole in an infinite plate
The theory of elasticity shows that the maximum stress at a circular hole in an infinite plate in tension is three times the applied stress when the material remains elastic. The effect of plasticity of the material is to lower this ratio. This paper considers the theoretical problem of the stress distribution in an infinitely large sheet with a circular hole for the general case where the material may have any stress-strain curve. The plate is assumed to be under uniform tension at a large distance from the hole. The material is taken to be isotropic and incompressible. (author
A unified theory of plastic buckling of columns and plates
On the basis of modern plasticity considerations, a unified theory of plastic buckling applicable to both columns and plates has been developed. For uniform compression, the theory shows that long columns which bend without appreciable twisting require the tangent modulus and that long flanges which twist without appreciable bending require the secant modulus. Structures that both bend and twist when they buckle require a modulus which is a combination of the secant modulus and the tangent modulus
Critical compressive stress for curved sheet supported along all edges and elastically restrained against rotation along the unloaded edges
Critical shear stress of an infinitely long flat plate with equal elastic restraints against rotation along the parallel edges

Compressive strength of flanges
The maximum compressive stress carried by a hinged flange is computed from a deformation theory of plasticity combined with the theory for finite deflections for this structure. The computed stresses agree well with those found experimentally. Empirical observation indicates that the results will also apply fairly well to the more commonly used flanges which are not hinged
